If the governments of Chilli and of
other South American countries had
paid bounty Of s. head for dead
condors thirty years ago, as under.
stand they do now, said the represen-
tative of New York leather house, |
could have made a fortune in the
course ri o few months, and mad a
heap Of fun doing it. Cond0rs were
plenty all along the Chilian coast, at
any rate, as far back as 1851, and dur.
ing the few months that I was in that
country found out good deal about
them, and could have made 500 a
day.
The appearance Of a hawk circling
about in the air over poultry yard
will not fill a brood of chickens with
more terror and excitement than will
the shadow OF condor ON the wing
carry to herd of cattle feeding on a
Chilian plain, as the great vujture
sweeps down from his eyrie in the
| painless Andes to seize his prey. The
condor, unlike other members Of the
vulture family, doesn't wait for some
thing or somcbody to die in order that
he may have his dinner, but ii he don I
find ready made carcass convenient
on the plain when he is hungry he
proceeds AT once TO provide the carcass
himself. The herds OF cattle that pas
ture on the undula,ing plains lying
between the impene,rable wall of the
Andes and the Pacitc's white-crested
line of surf offer the condor unrivalled
facilities for CARCASS making, and MS he
is in state of chronic hunger, this
king OF the fcathered race levies con.
slant tribute on the grazing herds
Thirty years ago ii was no uncommon
sight to see a Thousand OF these winged
free hooters lowering over the plains
each one ravenous and determined ~
a dinner robber from the scampering
terror stricken, believing herds below
The condor was then. as he is now il
Il less degree. the greatest enemy ih'
stock-raiser in that portion OF Soutl
America had to contend with, and j
was hispersistent and destructive raid
on grazing cattle that made him a
outlaw with price on his head, to b
relcntlcssly hunted even among III
many crogs and cloud capped cratcrs
where he makes his home.
